Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly book blog meme now hosted by Jana over at The Artsy Reader Girl!
This week's topic is: Book-to-Film Adaptations
Anticipated 2019 Book-to-Film Adaptations:
There are so many different interpretations for this topic, so it was hard to decide what direction to take! In the end, I kept it simple and decided to feature a small handful of 2019 adaptations I'm looking forward to, as well as another small handful of 2018-2019 adaptations I still need to catch up on.

Have you read any of these books? Are you looking forward to any of these adaptations or any I didn't mention? Let me know!
The House with a Clock in Its Walls was great. I even wrote a review for it on my blog! You should definitely watch it sometime.
ReplyDeleteMy TTT.
Oh I'll have to check your review out! It's one I've been dying to see but just haven't gotten around to, glad you liked it!
DeleteOh, I need to watch The ABC Murders. I love Rupert but it also looks so well done.
ReplyDeleteHere is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
I totally forgot Rupert Grint was in it until I put those post together, I'm excited to see how his character is!
DeleteSome of these look so fun! I watched the trailers for The House With the Clock in its Walls. I need to see it. I watched The Nutcracker and the Four Realms. We rented it On Demand before the Super Bowl, Not to talk you our of watching it but it's not one that I would buy or pay more than like $7 to watch it. It was cute but not ground breaking or anything. My TTT-https://paigesofbook.blogspot.com/2019/05/top-ten-tuesday-books-to-films-that-i.html
ReplyDeleteThe House With the Clock in its Walls is probably the one I'm most excited for, it looks so creative and fun. And that's good to know! I've seen some similar sentiments so I'll definitely try to rent it cheaply somewhere and check it out that way, thanks for the head's up!
DeleteI saw The House With a Clock in Its Wall but I never realized it was a book.
ReplyDeleteI didn't either at first, but it looks like a really fun middle grade!
DeleteThe ABC Murders definitely looks like it would be worth a watch!
ReplyDeleteThe Umbrella Academy was really good! I haven't read the comic, though.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list this is! And a reminder of more than a couple of shows/ books I'd forgotten about!
ReplyDeleteGood Omens looks like it's going to be awesome! I'm also looking forward to The ABC Murders and The Umbrella Academy. Also The House with a Clock in Its Walls was a lot of fun. :)
ReplyDeleteI read The Umbrella Academy and honestly didn't like it. But I LOVED the show!! :-D
